Bullock Lane, Helston

This is an outstanding opportunity of the sort that seldom arises. Set on approximately one third of an acre this generously proportioned three double bedroom home, now in need of updating works, is in a tucked away location, a short stroll from the town centre, boating lake, and the Penrose Estate.

Arrive via a private tree-lined driveway to find ample parking, a garage, and access to the property. Inside, the scale of the home becomes immediately apparent, with a spacious entrance hallway leading to a large dual-aspect lounge with picture windows and doors opening onto a sunny front terrace.

The adjacent kitchen includes a walk-in larder, and there is a rear lobby housing a boiler room and additional walk-in pantry. The ground floor also includes a generous double bedroom and a Jack and Jill bathroom, ideal for flexible living. Upstairs, a large landing provides the perfect space for a reading nook or study area, complete with an attractive outlook. There are two further generous double bedrooms, a family bathroom, as well as a useful home office.

Outside, the mature gardens are a true highlight - wrapping around the property and offering good degrees of privacy, with plenty of space to relax, grow, or even extend (subject to any necessary consents).

While the property would now benefit from updating, it presents a fantastic opportunity to create a truly individual dream home, just moments from the town centre.

LOCATION
Helston is famed for its historic Flora Day celebrations on 8th May when the town is bedecked with greenery, bluebells and gorse. Throughout the day dancers weave in and out of shops, houses and gardens following the Helston Town Band playing the famous Flora Dance and ushering in the summer. This property is situated in a tucked away location with a super garden and attractive outlook perfectly placed to enjoy all that the town has to offer whilst at the same time enjoying some peace and seclusion. The modern part of the town and the surrounding nearby areas now boast many primary schools with the nearest secondary schools being in Helston and Mullion. Helston also enjoys a leisure centre with a swimming pool and large gym and many amenity areas, including the Coronation Boating Lake and the beautiful National Trust Penrose Estate which offers a host of woodland walks. Helston is regarded as the gateway to the stunning Lizard Peninsula and is within a ten minute drive of the thriving harbour and coastline at Porthleven, offering an array of shops and good quality restaurants along with world class surf. The city of Truro and the towns of Falmouth, Penzance and Hayle are all within a twenty to thirty minute drive.
